I suffered a lisfranc fracture of my right foot on August 24, had surgery September 5, and graduated from a cast to a boot about 3 weeks ago. I have a painful sensation on the inner side of my right foot, in the general area where I had the surgery. It seems more prominent now that I am walking and bearing weight on the foot. Is that the pin, or should I be calling my doctor? I saw one post that said patients were anxious to have the pin removed -- is that why? (i.e., you start to really feel it?) Thanks for your input.
